Oh Odin! He was made for you, @Anne123 🥰

Poor Ella’s leg, keeping fingers and paws crossed that she makes a full recovery in the next 2 weeks. How much rest does she need, no off lead? And the dandruff is quite a lot (although shows up more in darker coats!) - I reckon it could be the changes in environment, maybe a bit of stress...

Stilton helped me put up paper chains this afternoon…

No, they won’t have done. This is part of the reason farming is increasingly impossible, and sets skewed expectations for how we value fresh produce. I don’t blame people for loving it but it’s negligent from the supermarkets.

I’m so sorry Naya, I wish there was something I could say to make it better. You loved her so well to the very end, and she had a lifetime of happiness with you. We’re all with you in your grief xxxxx

Oh Naya, this is so hard. Clearly it’s the right decision for her and darling Harley will know nothing beyond constant love until her last moments. Its the toughest love there is - thinking of you all x

Oh Anne, this is such wonderful news! How very exciting and what fun to look forward to :dug: We will definitely help suggest some names. Do you have any instincts, like themes (animal names, figures from mythology or folklore) or names you want to avoid (like ‘human’ names)?

Old towels, Specific solution, a good variety of chew toys… I think a comfy bed and the puppy pen is by far the most important thing. Maybe a little soft (Puppia) harness for vet visits and any off-the-floor out-and-abouts for the first few weeks, plus a light lead. Helps handling and getting...

It’s so rare we get these winds, I wouldn’t beat yourself up - it’s not usual to think of it. Just the thought of people coming home and finding their dogs have got out, it must be heart wrenching. Hopefully they’re all safe and sound, but it’s not the weather for adventures.

Oh hooray, sounds like a great evening ahead of you. I hope it’s brilliant!

I was thinking of you both this morning in this lousy weather, I hope you’re enjoying your hotel and it has a good stock of books, jigsaws etc!

Goodness, high drama on our shopping trip just now - 3 little Cavalier King Charles spaniels ran into the road in front of our car to bark at a passing dog on the pavement, the wind had obviously blown their fence down and gate open and owners were out. With leads and biscuits we managed to...

Oh poor baby. You might put down a few dog towels by the door in case it happens again, makes it slightly easier to clear up and gives her a bit of comfort (it won’t ruin her training just while the winds are high)

He does 🥺 and Carbón so rarely looks sad. But we must part, so we can meet again! How wonderful it is to be so loved 😍

This is SUCH good news! Go Coco :dug:

That’s really normal post-GA as I understand it, but it’s horribly distressing for you. We had similar with Kipper the only time he had GA and it lasted about 24 hours, fading in severity from ~6 hrs for us (but obviously individual variation, dose, weight etc makes a difference). I found it...

This is really encouraging, and explains why poor Chewie must have been so uncomfortable. Good news it’s not too daunting and hopefully has a really strong prognosis. We’ve taught Kipper to use a bed ramp, with great success - and my OH built a rather natty platform with nonslip covering to add...

Oh Chewie, he’s clearly out of sorts eh? He’s in the best place, but it’s so tough when you’re just waiting for news.

Poor Coco, it’s so awful when they’re sad and uncomfortable isn’t it. Keeping everything crossed that he bounces back very soon, darling boy. And on this We’ve all done it, it doesn’t make it any better but for Coco it will have been fleeting and he won’t dwell on it. Try to give yourself...

Very sensible, I hope Chewie responds well. The enrichment thread here is good, or do ask for ideasx
